PhD Proposal Defense - Ihsan S. Elnunu

Mechanical Engineering A Doctor of Philosophy Proposal Defense Entitled:  Fungal structure-property relationships: material and mechanical characterization of filamentous fungi’s sporocarps By: Ihsan S. Elnunu   Date: Thursday, July 17th, 2025 Time: 10:00 AM (Mountain Time) Location: MEK 3350 (Hal & Lois Milner Conference Room)   Committee Members:  Dr. Steven E. Naleway (Chair) Dr. Bryn Dentinger Dr. Mathieu Francoeur Dr. Jeffrey S. Bates Dr. Ken Monson   Project Summary  The structures of fungi’s sporocarps and their material, physical, and mechanical properties offer a wide range of possibilities for creating bioinspired materials. Considering the fungi's variety and structures, little has been done regarding material characterization or studies of their biomechanics and mechanical properties. Existing literature on the biomechanics of fungi focuses primarily on biological processes and morphology. Therefore, this research aims to test the hypothesis that a structure-property relationship study of the fungi’s microstructure can… Campus Wide Event: Yes.

Biomedical Engineering Design and Verification of a High Channel Count Multi-modal Carbon Fiber Electrode Array for Neural Interfacing Monday, July 21, 2025 9:00 AM ~ SMBB 3250 (BME Large Conf Rm) and TEAMS Meeting ID: 210 354 891 628 6 Presenter: Spencer Roberts Advisor: Dr. Florian Solzbacher Ph.D. Research Proposal Current neural implant technologies suffer from limited biocompatibility, which decreases their effective lifetime and limits their clinical application. The long-term goal is to develop an implantable neural implant whose geometric design and material composition improve biocompatibility to the point of enabling decades of function. In pursuit of this goal, the Chestek lab previously demonstrated the impressive biocompatibility and multi-modal performance of a carbon fiber electrode array (C-CFA). The objective of this application is to improve the C-CFA fabrication process to bring it in line with state-of-the-art process requirements, enhance biocompatibility compared to the original design, and validate those im… Campus Locations: Sorenson Molecular Biotechnology Building - James LeVoy (SMBB).

Ph.D. Dissertation Defense: Nicholas Richards

Biomedical Engineering Please join us for the following Biomedical Engineering Graduate Student Presentation: Ph.D. Dissertation Defense Advancing Magnetic Resonance-guided Focused Ultrasound: In Vivo Evaluation of Efficient Acoustic-Thermal Modeling and Simultaneous Proton Resonance Frequency Shift and T1 Thermometry in Heterogeneous Tissues Monday, July 21, 2025 10:00 AM EHSEB 2948 (Eccles Health Sciences Education Bldg.) Zoom Meeting ID: 99319632629 ~ Passcode: 660210 Presenter: Nicholas Richards Advisor: Dr. Allison Payne Magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) is an emerging clinical therapeutic modality. One primary mechanism for MRgFUS is thermal ablation, where absorbed acoustic energy at the ultrasound focus leads to precise, localized heating which is monitored with Magnetic Resonance (MR) thermometry. Ablative MRgFUS has the potential to be a safe and effective treatment option for many indications and can be advanced through development of tools to both accurately predict and monitor internal heating.… Alternate Location: Zoom Meeting ID: 99319632629 ~ Passcode: 660210.
